I need to make multiple versions of a given shape where the basic shape is the same, but the edges are different (straight, wavy, zig-zagged, etc.) -- kind of like this, but not circles: https://www.dreamstime.com/price-sticker-promo-badge-starburst-shape-star-callout-label-round-icons-sale-circles-button-tag-zigzag-edge-promotion-image191810468 Is there a shortcut to making this happen in Designer, or is drawing the outline manually for each one the only way to accomplish this?

Yet another request for this feature! It's taking me an hour to do what should have only taken about 2 minutes.

Hmm. I'm kind of ignorant about this stuff, and I don't really know what Type1 means. I thought it was a TrueType font. In a roundabout way, I think you've solved my problem. I went to check and see if it's listed some other way (besides TTF) in my Windows font directory, and discovered it says it's a TTF, but it also says, "Font embeddability: Restricted license; Print and preview" -- but some of the variants I looked at were listed differently. It seems that the original free files I downloaded to check out the font are completely different files from the paid ones I later bought, but I didn't realize that, so some of the original files hadn't been replaced. I uninstalled them all, re-downloaded (newer ones are OTF, apparently) and re-installed, and it looks like it's working now. Interestingly, the font information in the document properties is exactly the same as it was before -- but the text displays properly, so that's good enough for me! Thank you!

I've just created a couple of documents in Affinity Designer, which on export to PDF are doing something weird with one -- and only one -- of the three fonts. It isn't showing up missing and it isn't being substituted; it's just showing up as a weird assortment of bizarre characters. (See attached images for clips of what it should look like and what it does look like.) If I check the settings on the generated PDF, the other two fonts say their encoding is "Identity-H" but this one says it's "Custom." I'd rather figure out how to solve this problem than have to redesign my whole project with a different font, but I'm not sure where to even start, because I'm not sure why this font isn't behaving like the others.
